Hello everyone and welcome to our monthly, special lesson introduction for September!
This month saw us hold the sports day event for the whole school at the Yokohama Cultural Gymnasium and what a spectacular event it was! We saw the fast, the strong, the athletic and cunning in this fun-filled and action-packed day of events!

The sports day banner! All faces drawn and painted by the kids and teachers.

A fantastic group photo before the opening ceremony.

All lined and ready to start the introductions.

Ebi and kani, a favourite among everyone at Sunrise!

The foot race, an age-old test of speed!

Check out those dance moves by the fluttery butterflies!

See those leis swing with the choreographed steps!

Cat, cat, what do you like? Hint, he liked mice!

It required great skill to finish our dangerous obstacle course!

Those football skills are just magical!

Getting ready for the relay race!

Awesome dancing from the mums, dads and little caterpillars.

Now that was an incredibly, competitive tug of war!

One of the many poses in the amazing, group gymnastics session!

That is some seriously, frantic ball tossing!

I’m almost certain there is supposed to be TWO people running in this race!

More furious competition in the parents relay race!
Here it is, the final group photo! Thank you to everyone in this photo that made this sports day the spectacular event that it was. The children who worked super hard to both be ready for their events and for making the flags you see in the background as well as the entrance and exit pillars. Also the parents who both competed, cheered for their children and volunteered to help arrange the events. The teachers for arranging and helping the children get ready. But also a thank you for the staff at the gymnasium who were very accommodating.
So thank you all once again and we hope you had as much fun as we did!
